Interfacial challenges towards stable Li metal anode

Zheng Luo et al.

Summary: Rechargeable Li metal batteries had a glory moment in the 1980s, but were soon suspended due to safety concerns. However, with the increasing demands for high energy devices, Li metal anodes are now experiencing a revival. Despite significant progress, efficiency and safety issues continue to plague current Li metal anodes, highlighting the importance of understanding the interfacial chemistry and kinetics for practical applications.

Potentiometric Measurement to Probe Solvation Energy and Its Correlation to Lithium Battery Cyclability

Sang Cheol Kim et al.

Summary: In this study, a potentiometric technique was introduced to quantitatively characterize the impact of Li+ solvation energy in battery electrolytes on performance, revealing a correlation between cell potential and cycling stability. We found that solvents weakly binding to Li+ lead to improved cycling stability, as weaker solvation results in an anion-derived solid-electrolyte interphase that stabilizes cycling. This potentiometric measurement provides a guide for engineering effective electrolytes for lithium metal anodes.

Balancing interfacial reactions to achieve long cycle life in high-energy lithium metal batteries

Chaojiang Niu et al.

Summary: The study investigates the degradation mechanisms of Li || LiNi0.6Mn0.2Co0.2O2 pouch cells and shows that an optimal anode to cathode capacity ratio of 1:1 can balance well the rates of Li consumption, electrolyte depletion, and solid-electrolyte interphase construction to extend the cycle life of the cell. Contrary to conventional wisdom, long cycle life is observed with ultra-thin Li in balanced cells. A prototype 350 Wh kg(-1) pouch cell achieves over 600 stable cycles with 76% capacity retention.

An artificial hybrid interphase for an ultrahigh-rate and practical lithium metal anode

Anjun Hu et al.

Summary: An artificial hybrid SEI layer composed of lithium-antimony alloy and lithium fluoride was constructed to reduce electron tunneling between the Li anode and SEI, resulting in uniform Li deposition and stable Li plating/stripping behaviors at an ultrahigh rate. This work uncovers the internal mechanism of Li+ transport within the SEI component, providing a pathway to stabilize the Li anode under practical high-rate conditions.
